Owing to expansion of various chained business and booming of e-commerce, demands for all kinds of logistics increase. In order to improve services and satisfy customers’ needs, the logistics service providers must upgrade to the client-oriented “Overall Service” pattern. They need not only to integrate related upstream and downstream enterprises in the supply chain to effectively, fast and promptly meet the customers’ needs, but also to constantly improve the delivery network design and increase the efficiency of warehouse management. Thus, the logistics center is playing a more essential role. EIQ analysis method is a fast and effective way to design and improve the logistics plan and design. Through analysis of order information, the logistics delivery variation and order shipment pattern can be known, which can be used as the judgment basis to select operation plan, improvement method, delivery equipment, warehouse management, sorting and dispatching for logistics. Through utilizing the EIQ analysis method, it can get different planning to various order patterns. The research takes a domestic large-scale 3C business as an object. It takes order information provided to calculate the demand information for logistics operations, and then analyzes the demand information to find out an optimal logistics plan for practical work. The research focuses on IQ analysis and utilizes IQ-ABC analysis of EIQ method to conduct the logistics operation area planning and storage location assignment, as well as utilizes IQ-ABC and IQ-PCB analysis to scheme the logistics equipment. The research obtains 3 primary analysis results: I. logistics operation area plan, which include several area plans: 1, temporary storage for arrival; 2, temporary storage for shipment; 3, storage P→P; 4, sorting (container sorting area P→C, and unboxing container sorting area C→B, B→B; 5, return of goods; 6, assembly line; and 7, administration office. II. Logistics storage location assignment: this particular research’s planning map has 5,040 heavy-duty pallet rack stack storage locations for P→P sorting; 1,610 storage locations for P→C container sorting; 320 mobile rack (C→B) storage locations; and 200 light/medium-duty rack stacks (B→B), which can all conform to and meet the demanded quantity. III. Logistics equipment plan: which includes storage equipment like pallet-type rack stack, mobile rack stack and light/medium-duty rack stacks; handling equipment adopts fork lift and electrical pallet truck. In order to deal with unboxing and sorting operation, packing workstation, conveyor and simple sorting system are set as well. Based on the EIQ analysis method, the research utilizes practical order analysis to propose logistics center planning reference basis, which can be regarded as reference for future logistics center planning and practice.
